New Outlook for Mac does not show emails older than 30 days

Hello,

I needed to find an email that I keen the date that was send to me. So I start scrolling down to my Inbox. To my surprise, I could not scroll further than 30 days.

What's up with that? Only 30 days of ?

Is there a way for the New Outlook to increase that limit of showing only 30 days of emails?

Unfortunately searching in Outlook (either new or old look), seems to be getting worse and worse. Several people in my company have complained that search does not return all emails that should appear and it happened to me several times. So it is not that I can rely on search anymore.

If such simple things cannot be available, I could not imagine if Outlook for Mac will ever get feature parity with the Windows version.

    You don't need a workaround - the latest beta updates have fixed the problem!

    Thanks Finally I can see my old emails, I prefer the new look but it's useless if I cannot see all my emails. thank you Steve Cable1 for sharing this workaround, I hope Microsft fixes this.

    Not the solution everyone is looking for, however if you right click on the preview of the email and click View Source you can view it in TextEdit.

    I have the opposite problem. I tried switching to the "new outlook" and I can't see new messages. Outlook also doesn't display read messages, only old unread messages.

    Outlook for MAC sucks! I have to use Parallels to mimic a windows computer to be able to work.

    Can someone help??
